The SKF RS/GFJ series deep groove ball bearing is a single row bearing with double-sided sealing and high-temperature grease lubrication. It is used in applications with moderate heat where protection against contaminants is required, such as electric motors, industrial fans and process equipment. Its sealed design reduces maintenance and ensures reliable operation in demanding environments.
The designation of these bearings combines the basic code with suffixes that indicate specific characteristics. For example, in 6006-2RS1/GFJ, 6006 corresponds to the size and series, while 2RS1 indicates rubber sealing on both sides, and GFJ identifies the high-temperature grease with which it is factory-lubricated. Other examples such as 6207-2RS1/GFJ or 6305-2RS1/GFJ follow the same logic: the base number defines dimensions and load capacity, and the suffixes define sealing and lubrication. Knowing this nomenclature allows you to select the right bearing for each application.
These bearings are used in a wide variety of industries in Argentina, such as food, chemical, cement and metallurgical. They are common in electric motors, pumps, fans, conveyors and process machinery. Thanks to their sealing and high-temperature grease, they are suitable for equipment operating in environments with dust, humidity or high temperatures, where long service life and low maintenance are required.
To select the correct bearing, take into account the load, speed and environmental conditions. The 2RS1 seal protects against contaminants and retains grease, but it can limit maximum speed compared to open bearings. GFJ grease is formulated for high temperatures, which extends service life in hot applications. During assembly, ensure correct alignment and avoid impacts that could damage the seals. Relubrication is not necessary, as they are lubricated for life.
Regarding equivalences, SKF sealed deep groove ball bearings can be interchanged with those from other brands that follow the same basic designation and equivalent suffixes, such as 2RS or 2RSH. However, always verify tolerances and grease quality, as they can vary between manufacturers. For critical applications, consult the technical specifications of each brand. At MR Accesorios Industriales we sell SKF as a brand, and we can advise you on the best option for your equipment.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the dimensions of the SKF 6006-2RS1/GFJ bearing?
- The SKF 6006-2RS1/GFJ bearing has a 30 mm bore, a 55 mm outside diameter and a 13 mm width (30 x 55 x 13 mm). These are the standardised boundary dimensions (ISO 15) of the basic designation 6006.
- What does the GFJ suffix mean in these bearings?
- The GFJ suffix indicates that the bearing is factory-lubricated with a high-temperature grease, suitable for applications where heat is an important factor. This extends service life and reduces maintenance.
- Can SKF 2RS1/GFJ bearings be relubricated?
- No, these bearings are sealed and lubricated for life. Relubrication is not recommended, as the seal prevents access to the interior and you could damage the seals. If you need relubrication, consider open bearings or another type of sealing.
- What is the maximum operating temperature of GFJ grease?
- GFJ grease is designed to withstand high temperatures, typically up to 150 °C in continuous operation, although this value can vary depending on working conditions. For specific applications, consult the product data sheet.
